Where it all began!

As I entered a couple of customers were saying to the Manager, how much they had enjoyed their baltis which was a good sign before I tucked into my chicken and mushroom balti … a more than substantial portion and good to see the restaurant living up to its pledge to use fresh vegetables even down to the mushrooms.

They’re definitely worth a visit as part of the Balti circuit with a number of unique dishes including their notorious Chilli Bhaji which would be worth a place in the ‘I’m a Celeb’ bush tucker trials. Other dishes worth a shot including the Balti Zeera Chicken (cumin based) and the Balti Sehat Angaiz (a drier dish including minced chicken, king prawn and peas). For veggies, the Balti Sabzi E Khaas is a classic with fresh vegetables and lentils … all could be mopped up with a health giving ginger naan!

It was great to be part of the #JQFest last week showcasing our authentic Balti bowls in the marquee dedicated to products originated in the quarter. Dad in action...! #Steel #Flame #Spice #BirminghamBalti #MadeInBrum #Balti @MyJQ

Our heritage authentic balti bowls are lovingly designed and made in Birmingham's Jewellery quarter, created in the same way as the original 70's bowls and finished by hand. Celebrating and protecting the origins of Birmingham's signature dish. #realbalti #BirminghamBalti
